The first year for two-tone paint?

Could someone with a factory two tone maybe measure theirs and let me know what they have at that same point?

It still needs wet sanded and holes drilled for the molding, but I'm going to wait to first make sure I have it painted correctly

OK damage control time.
Try looking for threads (like this http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=612113 ) on adding bodyside moldings lower (BX2) and belt (B85) with the site search box.
The lower is well defined and positioned by the body line it runs along. The upper is a bit more difficult as to location and the fact it curves down at the rear along the bedside and IIRC a little at the front as well. In the middle of a lot here but I will try and see what I can find out later. My assembly manual has all the layouts (short long and longhorn) but are measured from the factory waterline references which can be difficult to duplicate.
